Sony continues to improve PSSR technology to solve the performance problems of PS5 Pro. New updates are on the road.
PS5 PROSince its release in November 2024, it has been the target of criticism due to its high price and performance problems. The console, which attracts attention with its $ 700 price tag, performed lower than expected in some games due to the problems in Sony’s PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) technology. Silent Hill 2 Remake and Star Wars Jedi: Image tremors and performance problems in games like Survivor have led to users’ reaction. However, Sony works intensively to solve these problems.
PSSR Problems and Sony’s work
PSSR, one of the biggest differences in PS5 Pro, aimed to improve the resolution and beam monitoring performance in the games. However, this technology not only created the expected effect in some games, but also caused performance decreases. Sony became aware of this situation and started to improve on PSSR.
According to a developer, Sony tested several different versions of PSSR technology and released consecutive updates to solve these problems. Finally, it is stated that improvements have been made in hardware beam monitoring (RT) applications. These updates significantly reduce the tremor problems in games, while aiming to improve PSSR’s performance.
Sony aims to regain the user trust by solving these technical problems by PS5 Pro. The year 2025 will be an important year for the console, because big games like Kingdom come: Deliverance 2 and GTA 6 are expected to force the hardware power of the PS5 Pro to the end. Sony’s positioning PS5 PRO as a stronger product will play a critical role in terms of the performance of these games and user experience.
